The SSM Health Treffert Center in Fond du Lac will host Archipelago 2025: A Celebration of Exceptional Minds on Friday, July 11th from 5 to 9 pm.
The event at the Fond du Lac County Campus brings together remarkable individuals from around the world who have savant syndrome-a rare condition in which individuals with developmental disorders, such as autism, exhibit profound abilities in areas like music, art, memory, or mathematics.
Dr. Jeremy Chapman is the Medical Director for the Treffert Center. He says one of the performers is Tony DeBlois, a blind pianist who learned to speak from the lyrics of pop songs he heard.
There will also be heavy hors d’oeuvres and passed appetizers, and opportunities to connect with exceptional minds and their stories.
For tickets or more information visit Amazing Savants.com or call 920-926-8100. The event is being made possible through the generous support of Libra Philanthropies.
